Anesthesia

Anesthetics are used during anesthesia. There are many different anesthetics used, the most common being Propofol.

As with many complex biological questions, this sounds like a straightforward question on first examination, and as we examine it more closely, it becomes a can of worms. Even the simplest biological change, and attempts to "detoxify" from it can get you in trouble. This is true even for the most healthy of individuals. Needless to say, most folks undergoing surgery and general anesthesia are not in the best of health, or they would not be needing the surgery or anesthesia. Example of a simple adjustment gone awry: say you consumed too much salty food and know your electrolyte balance is wacky. Since salt is a water soluable, you rationally decide to just dilute it with sufficient water (by drinking) to bring it to the same molarity as normal blood or tissue salt molarity or concentrations. Ah, but those 5 Kg of nasty nachos you knocked back with salt on them will require you to drink 10 gallons of water to get to that concentration. 10 gallons of water will KILL YOU. Well guess simple dilution is not the key, eh? Now imagine we have someone with various solvents in their system, various drugs, recovering from frank trauma of surgery and with their systems and physiological / chemical systems all in flux, and you want to tinker with their stability to "detoxify" them? In biological systems, rate process, ratios, and scale are everything. Belladona in a small dose can open open small passages and allow fluid to move or save your inner ear from over presurization ... but in larger dosages can kill. From water to toxic metals, from salt to spice, to drugs, it is all about those critical ratios and scale etc. So my advice is - DONT DO ANYTHING TO DETOXIFY FROM GENERAL ANESTHESIA ! Let the staff do their job, and do it well. Once you are able, increasing fluid intake moderately (say from 3 liters of water a day to 5 liters) and increasing exercise where safe to do so in moderation, will all help purge remaining substances from your body. Massage, where not contraindicated, is safe and does no harm, and might help get substances from interstitial fluids and tissues that dont otherwise flush quickly or easily. However, be aware that if you are on antibiotics or for that matter, taking ANY medication post procedure, changing your diet, even by increasing water intake much, can change the effective dosage of the medicines. Many medicines have minimum threasholds to be effective and if you take the pill with ... say 3 liters of water, rather than 1/3 of a liter of water, the outcome may be much different, as will the delivered dosage. Taking medicines with some substances like grapefruit juice (which can help flush substances from your system) also has the risk of disolving drugs you take into your system in such a way as to deliver more immediate and higher dosages that can be damaging or even lethal. In short, talk with your doctor, stick with moderation, and let the medical staff you have chosen do their job, do it well, and help you recover in a controlled and predictable manner. Modern medicine is far from perfect, but changing flawed but predictable for "who the hell knows what might happen" is not a good tradeoff.

Don't know, but it doesn't seem to have helped your spelling.

Some or all of the oxygen atoms in crown ethers can be replaced by nitrogen atoms to form aza crown ethers. In cryptands Some of the oxygen atoms replaced by nitrogen atoms, and in cyclen all oxygen atoms replaced by nitrogen atoms .

Yes.

Yes it is, unless the dentist does anything illegal. But usually topical anesthetics are widely sold from dental supply compagnies, and the price isn't expensive, so there is no reason for dentists to buy anything cheaper and not controlled.

Because of the acidic nature of an infected abscess, local anesthetics such as lidocaine have little or no effect in inhibiting nociceptors via sodium channel inhibition. This is because the free base form of the anesthetic is needed to penetrate tissue membranes. In highly acidic environments this base is in effect inactivated.

The guide published by the American Society of Anesthesiologists that provides the weights of anesthesia services is called the "ASA Relative Value Guide." This resource offers a comprehensive framework for understanding the relative value units associated with various anesthesia services, aiding in reimbursement and practice management.

I have had 17 surgeries. 3 of them a spinal. one spinal had to do with an artery surgery and the other 2 were births. and to my knowledge, YES, it is less riskier. anesthesia is having a respirator down your throat. spinal can be different levels of being awake with no breathing tube. general can cause death as for spinal can have after effects or not.

The most commonly used local anesthetic is lidocaine (also called xylocaine or lignocaine), a modern replacement for novocaine and procaine. Its half-life in the body is about 1.5-2 hours. Other local anesthetics in current use include articaine, septocaine, marcaine (a long-acting anesthetic), and mepivacaine. A combination of these may be used depending on the situation. Also, most agents come in two forms: with and without epinephrine.

The most common technique, effective for the lower teeth and jaw, is inferior alveolar nerve anesthesia. An injection blocks sensation in the inferior alveolar nerve, which runs from the angle of the mandible down the medial aspect of the mandible, innervating the lower teeth, lower lip, chin, and tongue. The inferior alveolar nerve probably is anesthetized more often than any other nerve in the body. To anesthetize this nerve, the dentist inserts the needle somewhat posterior to the patient's last molar. Several nondental nerves are usually anesthetized during an inferior alveolar block. Themental nerve, which supplies cutaneous innervation to the anterior lip and chin, is a distal branch of the inferior alveolar nerve. When the inferior alveolar nerve is blocked, the mental nerve is blocked also, resulting in a numb lip and chin. Nerves lying near the point where the inferior alveolar nerve enters the mandible often are also anesthetized during inferior alveolar anesthesia. For example, the lingual nerve can be anesthetized to produce a numb tongue. The facial nerve lies some distance from the inferior alveolar nerve, but in rare cases anesthetic can diffuse far enough posteriorly to anesthetize that nerve. The result is a temporary facial palsy (paralysis or paresis), with the injected side of the face drooping because of flaccid muscles, which disappears when the anesthesia wears off. If the facial nerve is cut by an improperly inserted needle, permanent facial palsy may occur.

Normally, tubal ligation takes about 20-30 minutes, and is performed under general anesthesia, spinal anesthesia, or local anesthesia with sedation.
